I've heard the 15000 number too, but it wasn't a short term goal. Push the timeline out its attainable.

Stay away from the 'bus; it's scary black magic, there's no green arc, the throttles don't move and it calls you names, maybe in Mandarin now, in the flare.

Per latest Howard A brief:

Hiring:
2015 890
2016 960-1150
Possibly 18,000 by 2024?

It's worth what you paid for it.

The Bus cockpit is WAY more comfortable though!! A lot more space and much quieter. A transcon in the guppy with a jumpseater is miserable.

Haha. Exactly. Stay away from the Bus. But, just to set the record straight there is a green arc...it's just dashed and doesn't really mean much. Can you you do 3 to 1 math for descent?...then you can enjoy Bus life, which is nice.

Oh, and when it calls me a Retard, I slam the throttles to idle and the landing is generally very nice.
